Always first:
- Unplug the dishwasher.
- Turn off the tap.
- Tip: When disassembling the old part, take regular pictures, so you can easily see how to reassemble the new part.
1. Remove the old door rubber
Open the dishwasher door. The door rubber runs along the inside of the appliance. Remove the door rubber by carefully pulling off the door rubber at the bottom.
2. Insert the new door rubber
Find the centre of the new door rubber. Push back the centre of the door rubber at the top of the dishwasher, where the previous door rubber stuck. Work from the centre towards both ends. Push the door rubber in as far as possible, but do not stretch it. Make sure the same amount of door rubber sticks out at both ends.
3. Close the dishwasher door
Close the door and push it gently. Then open the door again and check that the door rubber is still in the right place. If it is not, reposition the door rubber. If the door rubber is in the right place, close the door and leave the appliance like this for a while. Over the next few days, it may appear that the door opens and closes a little less easily than before.
